-------------------------------------
Summary: scala: add support for creating custom PatternConverter
plugins
Key: LOG4J2-3327
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3327
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Plugins
Reporter: Conor Griffin
Assignee: Mikael Ståldal
I tried to add a custom appender using Scala but the pattern of having a class
with an Plugin annotation and a static method on that class with a
PluginFactory or PluginBuilderFactory annotation doesn't seem to work in Scala.
In Scala, you can create a companion object to a class where you can implement
the equivalent of static methods but these are not the same class under the
hood. The Scala compiler builds 2 or more classes, the companion object gets a
class name with a $ appended to it. I think this is affecting the lookup for
the method with the Factory annotation.
